Common Reasons for Duplicate Events

If you see the same event firing more than once, check the places below.


1. Facebook & Instagram Sales Channel

This is the most common reason for duplicate events.

  • Shopify’s Facebook & Instagram sales channel adds the pixel automatically

  • Both systems send the same events

What to do

  • Remove the pixel from the Facebook & Instagram sales channel
    or

  • Turn off pixel tracking inside that channel


2. Pixel Code Added in theme.liquid

Sometimes pixel code is added manually in the theme.

Where to check

  • Go to Online Store → Themes → Edit Code

  • Open theme.liquid

What to do

  • Remove any Facebook Pixel code you see

  • Trackify will add everything automatically


3. Google Tag Manager (GTM)

If Facebook Pixel is added through Google Tag Manager, it can cause duplicates.

What to check

  • Facebook Pixel tags inside GTM

  • GTM code added in theme.liquid

What to do

  • Remove or disable Facebook Pixel tags in GTM

  • Keep GTM only for other tools (like Google Analytics)


4. Other Marketing or Tracking Apps

Some apps ask for your Facebook Pixel ID.

Important rule

  • Apps using your pixel can cause duplicate events

What to do

  • Turn off Facebook Pixel tracking in other apps

  • Let only Trackify send Facebook events

If you need help with this, please contact us through the in-app chat widget in your Trackify
